STYLE 01 SUPPORTS EXTREMELY FLEXIBLE, SYMMETRICAL AND ASYMMETRICAL LAYOUTS. STYLE 02’S VERSATILE CARD DESIGN SUPPORTS A WIDE ARRANGEMENT OF SYMMETRICAL LAYOUTS. STYLE 03 USES A CLEAN, CONTROLLED, SYMMETRICAL DESIGN, AND IS THE MOST TRADITIONAL LAYOUT OF THE PAST AGE (SERIES I) CARD TEMPLATES. THIS COMPLETE SET IS DESIGNED FOR INDIVIDUALS FOCUSING ON MULTIPLE CARD PROJECTS; OR CARD PROJECTS THAT INCLUDE VERY DIVERSE THEMES. ALL END PRODUCTS, PROTOTYPES, PRESENTATIONS, AND PROPS CREATED WITH PAST AGE (STYLE SERIES I) CARD TEMPLATES WILL ASSUREDLY INSPIRE AND AMAZE THEIR INTENDED AUDIENCE.

CARD FRONT

ALL CARD FRONT TEMPLATES WITHIN PAST AGE (STYLE SERIES I) COMPLETE ARE COMPOSED OF 14+ GRAPHICAL LAYOUT ELEMENTS (NOT INCLUDING TEXT OR ICONS) THAT CAN BE EASILY COLOR-EDITED. STYLE 01, 02, AND 03 CARD FRONT GRAPHICAL ELEMENTS ARE ORGANIZED INTO NEATLY ARRANGED PHOTOSHOP LAYER GROUPS IN WAYS THAT ALLOW FOR CONVENIENT LAYOUT CHANGES BY SIMPLY MAKING LAYER GROUPS VISIBLE OR HIDDEN.

THE HIERARCHIES OF LAYER GROUPS IN ALL CARD STYLES ARE ORGANIZED TO REFLECT THE POSITION OF GRAPHICAL ELEMENTS, RELATIVE TO THE ENTIRE CARD SPACE. LAYER GROUPS AMONGST THE CARD STYLES CONTAIN ELEMENTS SITUATED TOWARDS THE UPPER, MIDDLE, AND LOWER AREAS OF CARDS; AND IN SOME CASES THE SIDES. THIS ALLOWS FOR EASY MANIPULATION OF ELEMENTS, RELATIVE TO THEIR POSITION ON THE CARD.

ALL CARD STYLES IN PAST AGE (STYLE SERIES I) COMPLETE INCLUDE 3 OR MORE DISPLAY STYLES FOR ARTWORK. ALL OF THESE STYLES RELY ON PHOTOSHOP’S SMART OBJECT LAYER FEATURE. WHEN ARTWORK IS INSERTED INTO AN ARTWORK SMART OBJECT IN ANY CARD TEMPLATE, ALL OF THE ARTWORK DISPLAY STYLES WITHIN THE CARD TEMPLATE ARE AUTOMATICALLY UPDATED WITH THE ARTWORK. ALL CARD STYLES ALSO INCLUDE A .PNG ARTWORK LAYER GROUP, DESIGNED FOR INDIVIDUALS USING ARTWORK CONTAINING TRANSPARENCY INFORMATION (.GIF’S, .PNG’S, .SVG’S ETC.). PLACING ARTWORK THAT INCLUDES TRANSPARENCY INTO THIS LAYER GROUP WILL TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE CARD’S BACKGROUND DESIGN.

ALL CARD STYLES INCLUDE A BACKGROUND LAYER GROUP THAT CONTAINS A SINGLE SMART OBJECT HOLDING THE CARD’S BACKGROUND. ANY CARD STYLE’S BACKGROUND CAN BE FULLY EDITED BY OPENING THE SMART OBJECT IT IS CONTAINED IN.

CARD REAR

THE REAR CARD TEMPLATES INCLUDED IN PAST AGE (STYLE SERIES I) ARE COMPOSED OF A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT GRAPHICAL LAYOUT ELEMENTS THAT CAN BE EASILY COLOR-EDITED. LIKE THE CARD FRONT DESIGN ELEMENTS, THE CARD REAR ELEMENTS ARE ORGANIZED IN WAYS THAT REFLECT THEIR POSITIONS ON THE CARD SPACE.

SPECIAL FEATURES FOUND IN ALL CARD REARS COME IN THE FORM OF LAYER STYLES THAT CAN BE ADDED TO ANY SINGLE-COLOR LOGO/SYMBOL WITH TRANSPARENCY INFORMATION (I.E. .GIF’S, .PNG’S, AND .SVG’S). ALL CARD REARS INCLUDE 3 OR MORE LAYER STYLES, GIVING ONE MULTIPLE OPTIONS TO CUSTOMIZE THE LOOK AND FEEL OF ANY LOGO OR SYMBOL THEY WOULD LIKE TO BE DISPLAYED ON THE REAR OF THE CARD.

ICONS

INCLUDED IN PAST AGE (STYLE SERIES I) COMPLETE ARE A PLETHORA OF ICONS THAT CAN BE USED IN THE CARD’S DESIGN. A FOLDER NAMED “ICONS” CONTAINS 60 ICONS IN .PNG FORMAT AS WELL AS A .PSD FILE CONTAINING ALL 60 ICONS IN FULLY EDITABLE PHOTOSHOP SHAPE FORMAT. THE VECTOR BASED NATURE OF PHOTOSHOP SHAPES MAKES THESE ICONS SCALABLE TO ANY SIZE, WITHOUT REDUCTION IN GRAPHICS QUALITY. OPENING THE .PSD ICON FILE REVEALS A LAYER GROUP CONTAINING THE 60 DIFFERENT ICONS ON SEPARATE LAYERS NAMED AFTER THE IDEAS THEY REPRESENT. SOME ARE MORE SUBJECTIVE IN NATURE THAN OTHERS TO PROVIDE CARD MAKERS WITH FLEXIBILITY IN DEFINING MORE ORIGINAL IDEAS. ALL OF THE ICONS ARE ALREADY IMPLEMENTED INTO THE CARD FRONT FILES AS SMART OBJECTS, IN SPECIALLY DESIGNATED “ICON/TEXT” LAYER GROUPS. THIS ELIMINATES ANY NEED TO PLACE ANY ICONS DIRECTLY INTO THE CARD DESIGN UNLESS DRAMATIC CHANGES IN THE CARD’S DESIGN ARE MADE BY THE USER.

LAYER STYLES

PAST AGE (SERIES I) COMPLETE INCLUDES A TOTAL OF 15 PHOTOSHOP LAYER STYLES THAT CAN BE APPLIED TO TEXT AND ICONS IN THE VARIOUS CARD STYLE TEMPLATES. THE LAYER STYLES ARE INCLUDED IN SEPARATE PHOTOSHOP .ASL (STYLES) FILES FOUND WITHIN THE MAIN FOLDER OF EACH CARD TEMPLATE STYLE. THE STYLES CAN EASILY BE APPLIED TO ANY ICONS AND TEXT BY SELECTING THE TEXT OR ICON LAYER AND CLICKING ON THE PREFERRED LAYER STYLE IN THE STYLES PANEL.

ACTIONS

PAST AGE (STYLE SERIES I) COMPLETE INCLUDES TWO ACTIONS DESIGNED TO SAVE COMPLETED CARDS IN DIFFERENT FORMATS. THE FIRST PHOTOSHOP ACTION CROPS A FINISHED CARD’S BLEED SPACE AND THEN IMMEDIATELY SAVES THE CARD AT ITS DEFAULT RESOLUTION AND COLOR MODE (RGB). THIS MAKES THE ACTION USEFUL FOR SAVING CARDS TO BE USED IN DIGITAL MEDIA. THE SECOND PHOTOSHOP ACTION CONVERTS THE CARD FROM RGB COLOR MODE TO CMYK COLOR MODE (THE STANDARD FOR PRINT), AND SAVES THE CARD WITH THE .25 INCH BLEED SPACE. THIS SECOND ACTION WAS DESIGNED FOR SAVING THE CARD FILES FOR PRINT.

INSTRUCTION MANUALS

FAIRLY DETAILED INSTRUCTION MANUALS ALSO COME WITH THE PAST AGE (STYLE SERIES I) COMPLETE DOWNLOAD. 3 INSTRUCTION MANUALS (ONE FOR EACH STYLE) ARE INCLUDED IN ADOBE ACROBAT (.PDF) FORMAT. THEIR TABLE OF CONTENTS INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING SECTIONS: LAYER HIERARCHY, PLACING ARTWORK, CHANGING ICONS, TEXT/ICON STYLES, EDITING COLORS, CARD LAYOUTS, BACKGROUND, ACTIONS, CARD REAR, AND FONT RECOMMENDATIONS. IN EACH SECTION, THE TOPIC IS COVERED BY DESCRIPTIVE TEXT THAT INCLUDES NUMBERS THAT CORRESPOND TO VARIOUS IMAGES OF LAYERS, POP-UP WINDOWS, EDITING TOOLS AND OTHER FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS FOUND IN PHOTOSHOP. THE INSTRUCTION MANUALS ALSO CONTAIN DIFFERENT ILLUSTRATIONS ON THE SECTION TITLE PAGES, ALONG WITH SEVERAL CARD DESIGNS THROUGHOUT THE DOCUMENT, SHOWING VARIOUS LAYOUTS THAT CAN BE MADE USING THE DIFFERENT TEMPLATE STYLES. THE FONT RECOMMENDATIONS SECTION IN EACH INSTRUCTION MANUAL PROVIDES LIVE LINKS TO DOWNLOADABLE FONTS UNKNOWN DEPTHS RECOMMENDS USING WITH THE TEMPLATES.
